Who was the first King of Wessex?

According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, the first King of Wessex was Cerdic, who reigned from 519 to 534. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle was written centuries later, and the historic record is quite unclear. At least one important historian places Cerdic's reign as 538 to 554, but there is no proof one way or the other. Cerdic, by the way, is a Welsh name, not Saxon. Cynric, who was the next King of Wessex, also had a Welsh name, as did Ceawlin, who followed him. It all makes me very suspicious of those Anglo-Saxons and their Chronicle. There is a link below to a list of Kings of Wessex.

When was Egbert The King of Wessex?

Egbert is considered traditionally to be the first king of England. There are people to claim other kings to have been the first, including King Offa, King Athelstan, and possibly others. The question is not one of history, however, but one of semantics, with the arguers basing their claims on differing ideas of what "King of England" means.

Who ruled the Saxons?

There were different groups of Saxons, and they had many kingdoms, both in Britain and on the continent. The continental Saxons included some who lived in a kingdom called Saxony. They early history of this country is very obscure, but its last king was Widukind. He was defeated in a long war with the Franks under Charlemagne, who ruled Saxony after that. There were also other groups of Saxons on the continent, with a number of kingdoms in what are now the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Romania; again, the history of these is rather obscure. The Saxons in Britain founded the kingdoms of Essex, Middlesex, Sussex, and Wessex. These kingdoms were eventually united under the kings of Wessex, who were ancestral to nearly all later English monarchs. The earliest of the kings of Wessex, who established that kingdom were Cerdic and his son, Cynric. The king who united the English was Egbert. Possibly the most famous and important Saxon king was Alfred the Great. There is a link below to an article on the Saxons.
